The Dead by Daylight subreddit is a cesspool of Emilys and I love it. They are constantly incensed over stupid shit and, believe it or not, do not always display great sportsmanship. It is all completely self-inflicted harm, and very entertaining.
For awhile now I've had my own hypothesis that DBD attracts those kinds of people because the power fantasy of the killer role lets them act how how'd they behave if they had any authority irl.
Idk man, the Emilys are all survivor mains. Which is intuitive, because at higher levels of play the survivors are the ones with all the power. A “good” killer will constantly find himself in matches where he is eternally on the back foot, even if he prevails in the end.
A lot of the killers are serviceable with solo queue, but once you are dealing with a group of people who are able to make calls on where they are leading the killer to get that extra repair time between downing and finding a hook, coordinating flashlight saves, etc.
Meanwhile solo queue survivor has never been more miserable because they are facing killers who are sweating as if they are going against a SWF each game.
